Commenting on the cases for Slovenia's Finance paper and the STA news agency, Bogdan Glavina said the two cases were related and that banks in Slovenia had little understanding for his company, which has a number of its accounts blocked.
Glavina said the problem with the ship in Algeria was the result of an administrative entanglement with a bank and that if it was not solved now, he would have to sell both ships.
Speaking to STA, Glavina dismissed as fabrications the claims that the seamen on his ships were without food.
